1. over time this might affect our collective consciousness in regards to the purpose & function of the eggplant; and

  2. can we please just get a straightforward penis emoji already?? Half the human population has a penis attached to their bodies anyway, why are we still so prude about incorporating actual penises into mainstream vernacular & daily life?

addendum:

    I think that that’s already happening. Personally, when I see an eggplant, I automatically think of penises, and it makes me a bit uncomfortable.

    As a bonus, here are some ancient Egyptian dick hieroglyphs: 𓂸 𓂺 𓂹

      Same! 😆 But I wouldn’t say I feel uncomfortable about it, I feel amused and I giggle. One time I’m over at my ex-husband’s house visiting my kids and his new wife said they have a thriving garden in the backyard and she offered me this ginormous eggplant (I mean it was COMICALLY huge) and I looked at it appreciatively for a moment then burst out laughing and honestly I had no use for an eggplant whatsoever cuz I don’t cook and I’m not going to just eat the thing, I declined the offer but it was so funny. I keep wondering what my ex-husband’s new wife thought about me bursting out laughing at an innocent eggplant offering. I know she’s not so innocent that she would be naive to the double entendre, my ex husband has told me her kinks in the bedroom and that’s fine LOL

      (Edit: spelled entendre the way I think it’s supposed to be spelled instead of my “smart” phone consistently spelling it in a way that looks wrong to me.

        As a child of divorced parents I am impressed with the seemingly mature working relationship you and your ex husband have maintained.

          Ah! that may appear to be the case from this little anecdote I just shared, but believe me there is a lot of drama, for example the stepmom told me next time she’ll let me visit them is June 2025 for my daughter’s high school graduation🤦‍♀️ There’s SOOOO much drama and that woman is extremely controlling, she puts on a pleasant facade but she is a domineering, authoritative, control freak, and we all just let it slide because nobody wants any drama. She’s the one that creates all the drama. So we simply let her do that because we are not interested in drama.

            Sorry to hear. There will probably be a boundary that she crosses, and I’m hoping y’all can deliver some nasty consequences when that happens so she leaves y’all alone.

              Nope. She’s the impervious alpha and that’s fine.

      Thank you for the copy/pastable hieroglyphics 𓂸 𓂺 𓂹

      I see the second one is spewing liquid, but what is the third one doing with that hook thing?
